Surely you jest!
Surely you're not THAT stupid!

There have been a few minor details corrected. But all of the major concepts of that movie are absolutely correct.

Seriously... The fact that Moore is being sued, or the amount, or what Moore did and said? What?

It's the fact that anyone would try to conciously claim that $75 million dollars is the answer for a host of entirely subjective and extremely debatable greivances.

I think we both know he won't get the money. And so does he. But he might get a small fraction of it.

I believe he's probably making a statement - forcing Moore to admit that he lied.

And I think there will be others who sue Michael Moore too.

Anyone who believes Moore is not a liar is either stupid or not dealing in reality. He's nothing but a con man who manipulates the facts conveniently by editing. Any fool can do that, but it takes a bigger fool to believe it to be factual.

I wonder how much the reps paid him to do it right before the November elections?
This man was also in FahrenHYPE 9/11 which was released well over a year ago.

When he appeared in this movie he was completely misrepresented to tailor Michael Moore's misguided liberal agenda. Michael Moore made a fortune off of it and now he has to pay. HAHA!

Why shouldn't this man get a piece of it??

He won't get a penny because he was not misrepresented. He said exactly what he said and it was caught on tape.

He can cry about it all day long, doesn't change a damn thing. Now he is trying to profit off of the success of the film. If this was reversed and someone sued Coulter you guys would be saying exactly the same thing.

I guess we will have to find out. Personally, I think it will be settled out of court before a jury gets it. Both parties are still at the who blinks first stage. Moore tries to come off looking like some working class hero, but he is actually very very wealthy.
